Dying in the country you love

There are a few countries that Im eligible to migrate to if I so chose, but I can feel that in my heart I will choose to die in the country of my birth and the country i love.

A memorial service will be held on Friday night for a 45-year-old SA-born doctor killed in a Canadian clinic this week, allegedly by a patient wielding a hammer and a machete. wow And that in a country like Canada.

The ironic part is that he left SA 15 years ago to avoid the crime and violence here. confused

Most folk hope to die in their sleep but I have learned death can come very unexpectedly and at any given time.

I will die on African soil and hopefully in the Summer time. My minds made up. laugh

sad flower for the doctor

I'm not too impressed with you though Luke ....
wanting to pee on our summer snooty

We have a lot more choice over life and death than many people realise, unless of course there is a catastrophic event we have no control over.

Here's wishing you the right to choose when you are good and ready. wine
If i ever die
i wanna die on a Woman ...

and then be cremated, conversing
No need to make an announcement, Lukeon, just do it. drinking
Okay, so Dedo wishes for a catastrophic event he has no control over...

giggle
If Aldous Huxley can do it, I'm sure we can all find our own path, Dedo.
Lukeon, you got he facts or what ?I would like to see them plz.....i don't bleieve that another Canadian would do that....
Apparently, got confused when they asked the patient, if he had Blue Cross & Blue Shield. grin

Sorry. blushing Honestly, that's terrible. Was the doctor working in a hospital or a psychiatric ward ?
Good choice. My country, my culture, my customs. banana
Here is one article. Suspect is claiming he doesn't remember doing it. Will probably get off lightly in a Canadian court.

Lukeon ~ That is a very sad story. It seems so unfair on the Doctor, what were the odds of that happening?
With regard to your own wish. Well, people tend to die more in wintertime and between the hours of 3am and 6am when the body is at it's lowest.
Apart from that I wish you a peaceful and happy death when it comes. Meanwhile enjoy your life in Sunny south Africa. wave
